HIGGS BOSON: a recently completed chest, 23.5" x 9" x 7". Its title came to mind because the circuitry pattern made me think of sub-nuclear particle interactions, and coinciding with the work's completion, physicists at CERN in Geneva announced the first likely detection of the long-sought Higgs boson particle. Predicted mathematically decades ago, all of the theories of the universe have hinged on the reality of this elusive particle.

So now we can soundly sleep.

Just a title, but I like to have fun with the titles. I can always argue the circuits made me do it.

The image below is of the back of the chest, which looks almost exactly like the front except for the hinges.
